Dryer Vent Cleaning

Clogged dryer vents are one of the leading causes of house fires in the United States, yet most homeowners never think to have them cleaned. The lint that collects in your vent over time is highly flammable, and when it builds up enough to restrict airflow, it creates the perfect conditions for a fire to start.

Why Dryer Vent Cleaning Matters

Beyond the fire risk, a clogged dryer vent makes your dryer work harder and longer to dry your clothes. That means higher energy bills, more wear on your dryer, and clothes that come out still damp or take multiple cycles to dry. After servicing homes throughout Kirkland, Bellevue, Redmond, and the surrounding areas for over 20 years, we've seen vents completely packed with lint.

Signs your dryer vent needs cleaning:

• Clothes take longer than one cycle to dry
• The dryer feels hotter than normal during operation
• You notice a burning smell when the dryer runs
• The laundry room feels excessively humid
• Lint accumulates around the dryer or vent opening
• It's been more than a year since your last cleaning

Our Cleaning Process

We clean dryer vents thoroughly from both ends, at the dryer connection and at the exterior vent. Our process removes lint buildup throughout the entire length of the vent, not just what's easily accessible. We use specialized brushes and high-powered vacuum equipment to clear even long, winding vent runs.

During the service, we also inspect the vent for damage, improper installation, or other issues that could affect safety or performance. Crushed flexible ducts, disconnected joints, and improper terminations are common problems we find and can address.

What You'll Notice After

Customers throughout the Eastside typically report immediate improvements:

1. Clothes dry completely in a single cycle
2. The dryer runs cooler and quieter
3. Energy bills decrease
4. Peace of mind knowing a fire hazard has been eliminated

Bundle and Save

Since we're already there, many homeowners combine dryer vent cleaning with air duct cleaning. Both services improve your home's safety and efficiency, and scheduling them together means one visit instead of two. We can also address any HVAC maintenance needs during the same appointment.

Whether you're in Bellevue, Bothell, Woodinville, or anywhere else in our service area, we bring the same thorough approach to every home. Ready to reduce your fire risk and get your dryer working efficiently again? Give us a call at (425) 406-0263 to schedule your dryer vent cleaning.
